Getting started

Updated Oct 24, 2026

Thank you for choosing Kindle, a WordPress theme for charities, nonprofits and community causes. This guide covers installing the theme, setting your site up exactly like the demo, and editing it afterwards.

What's included

  • Kindle: the theme, as a .zip file you upload to WordPress.
  • Kindle Core: the companion plugin. It comes inside the theme package (in its plugins folder) and adds the site's features (causes, events, donations, enquiries, maps) and the one-click demo import.
  • This documentation.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.0 or newer
  • PHP 8.0 or newer
  • Elementor (free, from WordPress.org)

The demo import installs the required plugins for you, or you can install them yourself from Plugins → Add New.

Next steps
